Business requirements for Babel-Babel

Purpose

Babel-Babel is a device intended to ease the process of flashing and testing of Zubax products (or similar products). Besides that, the device can be used as a tool for developing and debugging Cyphal/CAN-compatible embedded devices. One Babel-Babel can replace two USB-CAN converters, a programmer, and provide one free USB 2.0 host port. All this requires a single USB connection to the host PC.

Technical requirements

  • Small size.
  • Minimizing the number of required USB connections to the host PCB.
  • Minimizing the number of required cable connections to the device under test.
  • The hardware should be compatible with the existing software for Babel and DCP 2.x.

Design requirements

  • USB connectors should be able to tolerate moderate mechanical abuse.
  • Enclosure class IP40.
  • Standard Dronecode connector should be used for SWD interface and debug UART.
  • USB-CAN converters should be compatible with Dronecode DS-015 hardware design recommendations.
  • The device should be powered from the USB bus (4.5 - 5.5 V, current consumption up to 500 mA).
  • Usage of non-AEC-Q grade components, as well as deviations from the hardware development policies, are allowed.

Environmental conditions

  • In-door usage.
  • Operating temperature range - 0..+40C
  • Operating humidty - up to 100% (non-condensing)
